Hello Lee_,

Welcome to the allergy forum. I see you recently became a member of Med help. How do you know you are allergic to eggs ? Have you, for example, had a skin allergy test administered by an allergist?
I had a skin allergy test administered by an allergist which I was referred to by my doctor at that time many years ago now. The skin allergy test revealed that I had an allergy to eggs. Okay, if 4 is the highest reaction to a particular substance/food and 1 is the lowest, I had a 1 to eggs.
Now , here it is over 10 years later, I eat eggs fairly often with no side effects that I can see. So no rash, no bloating etc.  So, if you did receive a skin test administered by an allergist, I guess my question would be to what extent are you allergic to eggs ? Are you the one who is allergic to eggs or are you asking on behalf of someone else ? If you are the one who is allergic to eggs and have a 4 or a 4 plus to eggs, then I would be very careful about eating eggs in any form.  I hope something I have shared with you in my comments you will find helpful.  Wishing you well.  Eve

Just avoidance. Actually, allergist will give you drops to "desensitize" you to the offending food, you won't be completely free of the allergen, but, you may be able to eat them in small amounts. Ask the doctor.
